Win2000 client on NT error message

1) Technet article Q266416 states that "This behavior can occur because either there may be a problem in the counter, or there may be a false-positive return value in the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) Performance Library dredger. If there is a false-positive return value in the WMI Performance Library dredger, in certain situations, the dredger may incorrectly determine that a library is invalid even though the counter works correctly."This is something Microsoft fixed in SP2 for Win2K. You can also make changes to the Registry if upgrading the service pack is not an option.Here is the URL on this error:http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q266416(please remove any spaces)
